Leica SCN400

The Leica SCN400 is a fast, reliable, and flexible slide scanner that can help you to digitize your slides quickly and easily. With its high-resolution optics, the SCN400 can capture high-quality images of your slides, revealing greater specimen detail. The patented Dynamic Focus Tracking technology ensures that your images are always in focus, even if the slide is not perfectly flat.

The SCN400 is also very reliable and precise, minimizing the risk of failed scans. It can scan slides at a rapid speed, making it ideal for high-throughput applications. The SCN400 is also very flexible, allowing you to scan slides of various sizes and thicknesses. You can also choose from a variety of scanning modes, including brightfield, fluorescence, and darkfield.
